    Its always a wonder how every price in market is going up, but wages aren't...

      notafanboy, 10 Jul 2024Their flagship phones are certainly not good value It is in my country.

        wow imagine that, higher profits as a result of poor employee wages/benefits? Who'd have thought? Besides, it's not like Samsung's having high costs as a result of innovations, they haven't done much to push smartphones forward in a long time. Crazy how even though they have such mediocre phones and high profits as a result of those high price low-mid cost products, they can't treat their employees well enough to ward off a strike. I wanna see how the fanboys defend this.

          Samsung's huge mistake was Exynos 2400 in S24 and S24+ aren't worth in worldwide 💀

            Isn’t Samsung like a huge gang in their own country. So good luck to the workers.

              So the Korean Samsung employees are not satisfied with their wages? Simple solution: move your production line to a developing industrial country with minimum wages and raise the prices of your electronic goods by 20%. More money for Samsung upper management and share holders (Sarcasm)

                More for Samsung to "unpack".

                  Its like charging 3 times extra for a business class ticket on the same plane, for little better food and surroundings and all.

                  Acceptable? Maybe, it depends.
                  Value for Money? No sir, not exactly. I'm sure you'd yourself disagree...

                  In fact, the best deals are their budget flagships, like S23 FE and all, in my opinion. When you count the Chinese phones in, again its not the best anymore.

                    notafanboy, 10 Jul 2024Their flagship phones are certainly not good value neither is the rest of their lineup tho...

                      Dear Samsung,
                      Keep your customers close... and your employees closer.

                      Already their chip manufacturing line is under fire for various other reasons, we all know, the failure of Snapdragon 7 Gen 1 in M55 and to some extent F55.
                      Dissatisfied employees ain't the best thing for already a low output chip manufacturing plant.

                          As long as Samsung continues to make good phones for the price I don't care
